Bozo de Blasio versus Walmart

Walmart’s benefits are obvious to shoppers and to economists like Jason Furman, who served in the Clinton administration and was chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama.

That was about the same amount that a family on food stamps then received from the federal government.
